HAY teaand oatmeal cruel is claimed
as the best food for calves raised by
hand. The difficulty in raising calves
when they are taken from their dams,
is the ''scours." When this is noticed
the food should be cooked. and of the
most digestible nature. Raw ground
oats and steamed clover is the best for
them when they are six months old, as
such food will cause them to grow very
rapidly, but previous TO that age the
node of feeding must be done judi
~ciously.

POULTRY need lime with their food.
The common food alone will not furn-
ish lime enough for a full supply OF
eggs. In a state of nature a hen would
lay a single litter of eggs. hatch them,
rear the chicks, and then give up bus
mess for the season. The ordinary
food would supply this small demand.
But when a hen lays 100 eggs she will
want as much lime in a month as she
would naturally get in a year. This
excess must be supplied. Crushed
bone and oyster shells are the best, and
should be kept always within reach of
the hens. 1t is not advisable to give
egg-shells unless they are broken up
very tine, otherwise the hens may learn
to break and eat eggs.

To indicate the influence of the food
upon the growth of the bone in animals,
Professor Lehman fed a young pig 126
days upon potatoes alone, the result
being ricketts,, or softening of the bone.
Other pigs, from the same litter. fed
upon potatoes black oat meal and adj
ditional phosphate5 for the same length
of time, had normal skeletons, yet
there was a difference according to the
phosphate added. Two that were fed
on phosphate of potash had porous
bones, that were specifically ligher than
others that bad been fed upon phos-
phate and carbonate Of lime. The
experiment demonstrates the impor-
lance of feeding a variety of food.

TIE Boston and Albany Railroad cars
are now lighted electrically by a ne"
method which promises to be success.
Each car is fitted up with tea mean
descent lamps of twenty-five candle
power, while The platform is lighted by
anotl or lamp. The power light is de-
rived from two storage batteries or
accumulators to supply the light eight
and a half hours. 1t is claimed that
the great objection to storage batteries
heretofore has been their short life,
but that Mr.. Julien has invented anew
metal for the supporting plates whereby
life of the battery is almost indefi'
nltely prolonged, indeed, that expert
ments have shown that. after eighteen
months use, they are as healthy
and servIceable as when they were

In cases of small surfaces it IS often
sufficient TO form a sheet OF the lux

The plates are simply placed between

being welded between the surfaces. a
table OF tests made was shown on The
wall, the results being highly favorable
to the system. Mr.. Anderson attrlbu'

FARM NOTES.

CHEAT Hoo HAIsING.-Hogs when
kept IN q large numbers are sometimes
subject TO contagious and ether diseases,
which soon destroy whole herds, and
ii will require close watching by an
expert and great care to keep the hogs
healthy. 1t is true such diseases may
not visit the herd for years. Hogs
should be turned off as early and
rapidly as possible, say from nine to
eighteen months old at the farthest.
There Is no domestic animals so pro-
life as the hog, and if disease can be
kept out and the proper system Of feed
Ing Is adopted, the business ought TO
be q very profitable one. But while
the plan contemplated may prove pro-
ftable, aud perhaps highly so, we do
not think it the most prcStable way
of raising hogs. Instead OF buying
corn by the bushel, our plan would be
TO raise the corn and let the hogs har-
vest it. IN six or eight weeks froso
planting, the corn is laid by, and, In
other words, is made. No other ex-
pense need be incurred. Hands need
only be hired for that length Of time.
The cost Of corn ID merely trifling In
OhAo way Oy tub use VI OhCdp POANoDiO
fences such portions Of the field can be
given from time to time as the hogs
may want, and the hogs may be fat
tened thoroughly for the market with.
out husking or hauling ar a of corn.
and thus all this labor and expense be
avoided. But this is not all. This
should be preceded by letting the hogs
run over clover pastures in the summer
time, until the oat crop ripens, when
the. hogs should run on the oat fields till
the corn is in a glazed condition. The
hogs harvest the oats as they do the
corn. Rye also should be sown for
winter pasture. which is Invaluable for
brood sows and pigs. and the crop in
summer may be led down by the hogs
like the oat and corn crop. In this
way the heavy, expense of harvesting.
hauling feeding, ETC., is avoided. and
the hogs have green food and a variety
Of food, which keeps them thriving all
the time and in q much healthier con-
dition than when fed on corn alone.
Of thousands Of acres could be
put to hog rearing in this way to large
and the fertility Of the soil kept
up all the time, as what is raised on the
farm is returned to it.
